The level of membership varies from fifty to seventy, augmented by up to sixty children who become temporary members for the annual pantomime. While there is a constitution and a properly elected committee to manage the society, there is no pecking order or timeserving in our approach. Everyone plays to his or her skills and there is considerable flexibility in how jobs are shared out, someone may be painting scenery in one production and directing the next.A new member is quite likely to be given a major part when they first join, in fact this is positively encouraged - assuming, of course, that they have the required skills. Having said this, no one is pressurised - if someone wishes to stay behind the scenes, that's fine.

We produce two plays a year in May and November and a pantomime in late January/early February, with play readings in between. There is also the odd one-act play, which we enter for the Abingdon Drama Festival. We are a very friendly group of people.As well as the party after the final performance of each production, we organise the occasional theatre trip, a regular mid-summer bar-b-que and a Christmas dinner.www.faringdondramatic.org.uk/Enquiries to DramaFaringdon@yahoo co.uk or through the website__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Faringdon Artistic skate clubFaringdon Skate club open to all ages and abilitiesLessons 7 days a weekDavina England0787 295 5355davina_england@talktalk.net__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Karen Brind School of DanceIDTA Ballet, Tap, FreestyleClasses also in Faringdon, Grove, and Stanford in the Vale__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Learn to DanceTo find out more please contact:Amanda Gibson on 07882 882 030 or learntodance@mac.comhttp://www.wiltshiredance.co.uk/Want to learn to dance?

There's no right, there's no left, there's no right, there's no wrong, there's only fun! We shake and shimmy, we get fit and keep active in the process. You don't need to be a dancer, or coordinated in anyway to still get a great workout. But you will also be challenged by some new steps and get your brain working.I use a lot of Latin music, but I also love to include lots of other international rhythms and even chart music. My goal is to make you smile and make you sweat - because that's what we believe makes a great Zumba Fitness® class.____________________________________________________________________________________________________West Oxfordshire Academy of Performing Arts - a very popular Saturday Children's Theatre School in Witney for ages 4-16yrs.Singing Dance & Drama - Performances - make new friends and have loads of fun!At WOAPA, we take pride in going that extra mile for our students.
